this is mitt romney. this is not the first time he's talked about not necessarily caring about people less fortunate than him. he flat-out said he wasn't very concerned about the very poor. so this isn't like a misstep or a one-off. this is consistent theme with him, and it's up to the voters to figure out whether or not they agree with him or not. they're not gaffes. they're him. >> so let me ask you, what does -- how does mitt romney have to appear during that presidential debate? does he have to be deferential, does he have to be aggressive? what is the right tone? because when we saw him, you know, before when he was -- when he was running for the nominee, he could be a little bit aggressive. remember that point when he said to rick perry, i'll bet you $10,000. not going to go over as well in the presidential debates, i don't think, l.z., right? >> no, absolutely not. and the thing is, is that mitt romney really seems to fungd well when he's coming from behind. so if there's anything that would give h

mitt romney? >> that's not the issue, to me. i think he will -- i think he's principled in the sense that he will keep the commitments that he has made. almost all people when they run for president make a number of commitments. when they get elected, almost all presidents since modern studies have been done, the last seven or eight presidents, make an exceptional effort to do what they said they were going to do. when there's an exception to that, there's normally an overwhelming reason. abraham lincoln promised not to free the slaves. we're glad he didn't. reagan promised to balance the budget. we're glad he didn't try. almost every other president may have one smaller issue. but, by and large, they all do what they said they were going to do. yes, i think we should assume that he will be principled on that. he knows what he promised to do in the primary. and what he said in the general has been consistent with that. we should assume that is what he would do. >> under normal circumstances, the incumbent president with 8.2% une
